Servings: 16 servings
Ingredients
- 1 egg white
- 2 teaspoons vanilla bean paste (you can also use the same amount of pure vanilla extract)
- 4 cups mixed nuts (I use almonds, cashews, walnuts)
- ¾ cups sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon allspice
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Prep. Preheat oven to 300ºF. Grease a baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside.
- Coat the nuts. In a large mixing bowl, beat the egg white with the vanilla bean paste until frothy. Add the nuts to the egg-white mixture and stir to combine.
- Mix the spices. In a separate bowl, combine sugar, salt, allspice, and ground cinnamon. Mix until thoroughly incorporated.
- Combine. Add spices to the nuts and stir to combine. Transfer nuts to the previously prepared baking sheet and spread them out in one single layer.
- Bake. Bake for 20 minutes, stirring once halfway through baking. Remove from oven and transfer to a wax paper-lined baking sheet; let cool. Break apart and serve.
